Words Worth absolutely nothing!

Hey! Ok first off, i'll have to start off with a huge apology to some people (and by this I mean especially Shoma) who'll be expecting a nice bitching session here. Unfortunately, not gonna happen. You'll understand why later.
Ok. Here's what happened. I was supposed to make a presentation on William Wordsworth's ideas on literary criticism. Now, I'm not one of those people who can just mug up the stuff they have to say and simply blurt it all out. I talk to my audience, try to make them understand what i'm trying to say. So my approach was pretty casual. Casual in the sense that I was just standing up there and talking to the class, the way I normally talk. Our teacher didn't like that much. Actually, let me rephrase that... Our teacher didn't like that AT ALL. So you could see her getting visibly more and more annoyed. Now this is a teacher who always just HAS to interrupt you halfway through your presentations to add in her extra points. I'm not saying don't add them, I'm just saying add them later. I'm losing my train of thought here dude! Anyways, so she finally said "ok fine that's enough please sit down."
I was a little taken aback. So was almost the rest of the class. It was just so abrupt and so downright rude, nobody knew what to do or say. So I stepped down, muttering ALL the two swear words I know... over and over again. Man I was pissed!!! I was about to cry then I realised she wasn't worth it. So I just went through the rest of the period quietly, stiff as a post, not even pretending or trying to disguise my utter fury.
Then when class was over I heard my friends bitching about it nicely to me... How could she? How dare she? What the hell? etc. etc. etc... But I'd managed to gain some control of myself by that time, luckily for everyone. Later, after the rest of them had left, I was still waiting coz I only had to leave in some 20 minutes or so for something else. I was listening to my music and still fuming when I saw ma'am walking down the drive. I saw her coming toward me, out of the corner of my eye and was sure that she was gonna come and give me some big lecture or something. Actually, all she said was that she was feeling really bad about what happened and she wanted to apologise.
So she had apologised. So what? Did that mean I was supposed to just let it go or something? DUH! Of course it does! It takes a big person to apologise. Let me tell you something.... You can screw up so bad, you don't know what the hell you were thinking when you were screwing up. But all you have to do is give me a sincere apology and try to make it right. That's enough! Simple as that. All you have to do. And it's a known fact that there aren't a lot of adults who believe in apologising to "children" like us. Some of them think it's not right of you to expect an adult to apologise. I believe that's utter crap! When you're wrong, just apologise dude! What the hell do you lose? In fact, if you ask me, it's just gonna earn you someone's respect. So why don't you? I don't get this whole "He had to swallow his pride and apologise" thing. Why swallow your pride? You're just gonna be all the better for it after you do.
Ok, think I'm done. Well, for now anyways. Cheers!
